I know this is a super old thread but I’m looking to get the blank files for the targets that you show in the pictures above???

Dave, If you look on the bulletin page there is a lot of knowledge on there in articles and diy stuff. There is also a free target page. I believe this is the target you are talking about and there are others on there just scroll down the page. Hope this helps.
 
IMR 8208 XBR is a great powder. I use it in 6 BR, 30 BR and 308 Win.

Was shooting 105 Bergers recently decided to shoot some 55 gr nosler ballistic tips from my 6 BR. Accurate and fast.

Hi, I'm new to Accurate Shooter but enjoy learning from this great group. I've been shooting 6BR's for years now. I have 4 now and in the process of my 5th build. Anyway, I'm in very short supply of Varget. I do however have a bunch of 8208 XBR and BL-C (2). Has anyone ever tried these in a 6BR. I'm running a 1/8" Twist Kreiger with some 90gr Bergers. Also a 16.5" 1/14" twist Shilen Match with 68gr FB Bergers. Any load data or opinions would help a great deal. Thanks, TY
Hard to beat Varget. Just my two cents. Tommy Mc. I have tried all the powders mentioned above, but i go back to Varget.
 
I shot 8208 and VV135 in my 14twist w/68 gr bullets. These 2 powders
were so identical I could mix them in the shell box and never know the difference. LDS
